Here too. Is it safe, or can a person turn on the 921 and see any type of progress screen on the download?

A fix for what? Is this another emergency release?

Didn't Renee mention OTA problems during the tech chat?

I agree, I like how the 811 handles screen ratios

It would sure be nice to know if I'm supposed to now have the EPG for the channel that lost it with L212. I hate to try a bunch of things if it's not even supposed to be fixed.

Skates, more info please, did you get back "in or out of DMA" and do you subscribe to locals?

This is "in DMA", I subscribe to locals, and I had lost all OTA guide data except for the primary sub channel of every single local channel.

Examples: I had guide data for ABC 7.1 (the primary subchannel of 7), but lost 7.2 and 7.3 guide data with L218. I had guide data for 28.2 (the primary subchannel of 28), but lost guide data for 28.1 with L218.

All of the non-primary subchannel OTA info has returned on all of my OTA channels. In LA, there are way too many to list here.

Nothing new in my menu 6-5 compared to 218. What are you seeing?

Oh yes, and I STILL have no guide data for ANY of my local channels. I reported this in the first 218 bug thread...

I am missing guide data for all locals, OTA and DISH. All they say is LOCAL PROGRAMMING. Argh.

This is on my recently received re-manufactured 921 that is HECD. I checked my HEED and it still has the old menu. I added a picture to my post just above yours. Also, with my past 921's if they were off when finished with the download, they automatically booted with the new software version. The HECD gave me a menu telling me to power off. even after it went through the boot process directly after receiving the download.

I just checked my EPG for the FOX (KCVU) data as it has hit and miss data around prime time on every second or third day in the future. For now, it is all there for the entire time frames!

Likewise here in San Francisco. We now have back what we had under L216 and lost with L218 - all the sub-channel guide info for KQED (9.1-.5), and KCSM (43.1 and .2).

Well done Eldon! (now please, don't take it away again).

Cheers,

Angry Lost DTV with L219

Rebooted after L219 downloaded and lost all but two OTA DTV channels (26, KTSF and 65,KKPX both independent local channels) also the ability to add lost DTVs back. I subscribe to locals. Can't get them via scan or one at a time. I had the following OTAs including all sub-channels before the L219 "improvement":
002 KTVU FOX
004 KRON IND
005 KPIX CBS
007 KGO ABC
009 KQED PBS
020 KBWB 2B

So, any ideas? How about you Mark?

All Sutro tower digital TV transmissions are off today and tomorrow 9am-4pm or so for testing. KTSF and KKPX both transmit from Mt. San Bruno.

I got back my 08-01 guide data for the national HD PBS channel, which I never had that had for like 215 or whatever it was and then lost. Glad to have it back now. Haven't seen anything else yet.

Boylehome, we have the same TV you do? What size is yours?
